Easter Chocolate Shopping Guide
Summary
Mighty Earth's Easter Chocolate Shopping Guide evaluates chocolate companies based on their policies regarding deforestation-free cocoa, agroforestry, and living income, awarding Lindt for policy improvement and SucDen for poor transparency and policies.
Key insights
- Mighty Earth's investigations indicate that cocoa production is a driver of global deforestation, which results in the destruction of rainforest habitats for endangered wildlife, including chimpanzees.
- The guide evaluates companies based on four primary sustainability criteria: the implementation of living income, the procurement of deforestation-free cocoa worldwide, the application of agroforestry for all cocoa worldwide, and improvements in West Africa.
- Lindt is recognized with the 'Good Egg Award' for achieving the most significant improvement in sustainable policies, while SucDen is given the 'Rotten Egg Award' due to worst-in-class policies and a lack of transparency.
